What ?

enjoy.

Sazanami, inazuma, Fubuki, Murakumo, Samidare

“There admiral, let me look your back”

“ok” then I turn my back to this child.

I starting to think they are not normal child, because they know how to treat a wound perfectly, even they know how to use bandage without asking to me how to use it.

“tell me, honestly, who teach you this medical skill ?” I asking this while my wound on my back treated by Inazuma

“I learn this from my fairy crew”

“Oh, that female creature on your shoulder, you called ‘fairy crew?’ ”

*Thud*

The bandage was dropped from sazanami hand.

““Ah…”” both Inazuma and sazanami hand close their mouth. Even the fairy look very surprised.

“huh” I startled “something wrong ?”

“”Admiral, Sir… are you can see our crew ?””

“yes” I answer, still in mixed confuse, but curious and anxiety make me want to continue

“sazanami…”

“Y-yes… let’s ask him”

“What is it ?”

“Th-then do you, d-do you can see our Kanmusu Body, I-I mean our equipment” her sound was looks like scare to something

Then on both of their body come out something from empty air.

“this” I ask them while my hand touch those smokestack thing

“M-Master” sazanami said that with heavy breath. “Please don’t touch that”

“O-Okay” I withdrew my hand and cross my arm while looking those girs talking each other cheerfully.

“”this one is real admiral””

“huh!?”

“wait till our sis…ter….”

Then they make gloomy face again…

Phmft… they are cute, and can make many expression like that… I starting to admire them.

“well, let us hurry to get your sister back to safety” I try to cheer them.

”yes” “nanodesu” they replied happily, “I scout ahead, admiral let’s go”

“I can’t” I replied calmly, and smile to them.

““eeeeeh”” “b-but you said”

I smile, then laugh at them.

“I can’t go anywhere, not before you two finish tie my bandage”

“”ah…”” they hurried back and tie my bandage with red face, oh shit this was beyond my control, because I chuckle nonstop until they finish treating my wound. But I pay them with heavy price, because both sazanami and Inazuma, tie my bandage TIGHT, VERY VERY TIGHT.

While my wound trated by them, I was thinking, how I can fight them ?

Their skin was hard, and even handgun bullet was did very little damage to them.

Then my vision come to blur again. After that many word and familiar vision come in front of my eyes, and ended by big green word said

STEADFAST MIND

Then something comes from my mind. ‘Sniper Rifle…’ yes… one bullet to the right place always dangerous. But from what I know, the sniping tech was not known, or at least have yet developed. Even then a simple rifle scope have yet known from VI weaponry data list I have read here.

Then I got a brilliant idea, why not using binocular as a scope.

“sazanami, can you break this binocular for me ? but be careful with it”

“yes master, huh? O-okay”

.

.

.

“Alright, let’s go” after I finish pack anything I can from this security room

Brrrrr….

Another shockwave that haven’t heard for a while starting again…

I starting to suspect that this wasn’t a natural disaster. No matter how heavy the storm is, it won’t make an earthquake.

“Did storm in this world can cause an earthquake” I ask, while running with them.

“We don’t know,master. But I sense many abyss soul surrounding this place, especially from sea around here.”

“nanodesu, there so many soul gather here, that makes me chill”

So the lightning rod malfungtion and the shockwave was cause by abyss. Hm why they did that ? did they do that to free their people ?

“There admiral, Fubuki and the other should be ne-“

Boom… Boom… Boom… Crack…

“What the..” I stopped and see my surrounding, “something wrong, must be happen here”

‘ALERT, ALERT, INTRUDER HAVE BEEN BREACH FACILITY’

Then my Viewer starting to flash nonstop, with red words DANGER flashing.

“VI can you respond” I try to talk to my viewer,

Then a word and a somekind loading bar pop on my viewer.

Establish Emergency Connection…

‘Yes, Mr.Cyril’ female VI sound come from my viewer.

“VI what happen here ?” I ask to the VI,

‘My hardware have been damaged, many can’t be restored. But I have raise emergency backup running, sorry for the delay Mr.Cyril’

So you can up and running again ?

‘For now yes, I have running emergency protocol and upload my brain data to your Viewer, for now I have completed 40%, it may have long, because your position was far from my core, in emergency situation, that make my hardware damaged, I have deliberate to upload my brain data to highest personnel available’

“yes yes… do what you want, but who the intruder and who cause the chaos in here ?” I ask petulanty.

‘Abyss force attacking this island after storm, that first attack cause damage to outer perimeter and defensive armament here was all destroyed. The intruder was standard abyss fleet force include one A rank Disaster force Re-Class’

“”Re…Task Force””

“huh ? Task Force, do you know them ?”

“yes, nanodesu” Inazuma and Sazanami suddenly frightened and tremble “in our past they was an elite task force who cause many damage to our ranks”

“we fought many time with them, we loose for most of our battle, sometimes we win, but the damage after fighting them was severe”

“great, nothing good happen when fighting task force” I starting to irritated more and more, guess I have quickly get rid of this task force” I take my rifle, and put my custom scope on that.

“Let us Hurried” I said and starting to run faster

Meanwhile, on Fubuki side… while admiral wound been tended.

Murakumo, Samidare, Fubuki.

Bang… Bang…

“Out of my way!”

Bang Bang Bang,

Murakumo was shooting to Abyssal Destroyer, and slip behind rubble before they got a chance to turn around and spot her. Abyssal weak defensive power became their downfall.

Facing the destructive power of kanmusu weapon, the mixed I, Ro, and Ha Class was completely helpless. The Flagship was Light Cruiser Ho Class already got medium damage from the ambush, since it got in the center of crossfire, without command from Flagship, Abyss force were completely crippled.

However, this didn’t mean that it’s attack would stop just like that. In the instant it’s gun exploded, the gun in it’s hand was aiming directly at Samidare.

Fubuki shouted loudly, samidare right foot firmly planted on the ground. He shifted his body in the path of the bullet and the moment the trajectory bullet was known, she reflected the bullet by her gun.

*Traaang*

At this very moment, Fubuki made a move from its flank. With full speed, she brazenly attacked and produced full salvo.

This attack could only be one thing: Critical hit. Even though Fubuki and the other was only low level, it was still an devastating attack. Suffering from the effects of Critical attack, that Ho Class slowed down as it collided against the Ro Class, before violently got striking Murakumo Spear.

Bang– —

A glaring golden light simultaneously radiated from the Abyss body, and Ho class body was lauch into midair by Murakumo strike.

“Samidare…”

“I’m okay, “ she said, “I can’t evade it, so I just reflect that”

“are you okay ?”

“yes it’s just a scratch, let us go, we must buy time for Sazanami and Inazuma, so the Abyss Force not pursue them”

Again they slipped in darkness waiting Abyss careless, and strike them, The Abyss on other side can’t move without got hit from darkness, Their Radar jamming they use to Fubuki cs was completely against them, so they was stuck there don’t know what to do, only waiting the inevitable

“this guerilla tactics, Hit and run was perfect. I won’t bored for this,if only i can use my torpedo. Fubuki, where you get this tactics ?”

“I got this from Bigsis Kiso, don’t tell me you don’t read that”

“well I don’t like reading, I even dislike accounting school, even shirayuki was give up asking me to go there”

(the IJN's "Navy Accounting School", which taught general affair-related matters including education, new officer training, the preparation of rations & clothing, as well as actual bookkeeping...)

Boom… Boom… Boom… Crack…

“Huh, Fubuki is this your doing again ?” Murakumo asking and Samidare to starting looking to Fubuki who shake her head.

“I didn't do anything, i think it was you, you the one who trigger happy since the battle begun, are you sure you didn't hit something strage ?”

“What !, I didn't do anything strange...yet”

Then another shockwave was coming while alarm start flashing.

‘ALERT, ALERT, INTRUDER HAVE BEEN BREACH FACILITY’

Then there are sound coming from Abyss side, while they all was shaking violently, like scare from something…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKhLPF9D2hI

“oh dear… whatever it is, we’re doomed…”

“No one that can make abyss shaking like that was small fish…”

How can we face something like that… I starting to loose hope, and despair. Murakumo starting to silent and samidare too strating to make a serious face.

“Fubuki, Samidare” murakumo murmured “do you think Inazuma and Sazanami will succeed ?”

“They will… I have faith in them”

“yup, Inazuma when serious she will make something incredible”

“Then… I’m glad, I don’t have any regret in this life, if they succeed”

“”yeah, me too””

“Let us continue…”
